The interest rate outlook has swung sharply since November 2018, with mainstream expectations now a full percentage point lower than they had been. For short-term interest rates (Federal Funds), the Wall Street Journal's latest survey of economists shows average expectations of just two percent throughout 2020 and 2021, down from the recent 2.41%. The 10-year Treasury bond is expected to rise just 0.4% over the next two years from the current 2.14%.
